While the article doesn't mention any specifics of what they talked about, it's interesting to note that this is the first undisputed photographic evidence of Kim alive. Of course, it might not even be him, but now we're just playing semantics.
Clinton's visit was urged by former South Korea President Kim Dae-jung, according to Rep. Park Jie-won, an aide to the former president.
According to the article:
Former President Kim Dae-jung had advised Clinton to visit North Korea during their meeting in Seoul last May, according to Rep. Park Jie-won, a long-time aide to the former head of state.
Rep. Park quoted Kim as having advised Clinton to visit Pyongyang as an envoy to end the deadlock in inter-Korean relations and Washington-Pyongyang ties. Upon hearing the advice, Clinton was said to have promised that he would convey the proposal to his wife and President Obama.
